Re: Bell's palsy

about the strapping method....where Im from...strapping has been effective. In the sense, to only maintain muscle tone and prevent sagging of the face.
But, electrotherapy has proved most effective....because the nerve is temporarily paralysed and needs to be reactivated. therefore, electrical stimulation is effective, mostly using Galvanic current because the muscles on the face are small.

Any discussions?
